    This is one of my dream cars. I live in Argentina and I have only seen a M3W once, at a car show a few years ago. It was the Super Dry edition, surrounded by motorcycles. And nobody was paying attention to it, everybody was looking at the motorcycles instead. How so? This is infinitely cooler than your average Harley.

    I love the Morgan manufacturing approach and model line up.
    I wouldn't even mind having the new one in an automatic trans.
    But its classic motor car/ driver interaction so standard trans is more fun but I would probably drive the automatic more often.
    Great vehicals at any rate. Wish I could afford one.

    I grew up in the former Soviet Union, in the 1990s, and one of my earliest memories of cars, is seeing a Morgan 3-wheeler in some picture book when i was like 2 or 3 years old. Definitely before I could remember vocalizing my thoughts but even then this looked so much unlike any other car I had seen up to that point, either in real life or on pictures. I even remember asking about it from my mother (or father), because it looked like a car, but the engine was clearly outside of it, so it wasn't a car, so what was it exactly?
    I do not remember the exact reply, but i think "three-wheeled" was mentioned. And to the young me back then, a three-wheeled car was at least 25% less of a car than an four-wheeled car.

    A morgan 3 wheeler meeting a delorean, - is that back to the future or forward to the past? Whenever I see one I just wave at them , they are such a feel good car that shows cars are not just numbers. I can't think of a better car on a sunny day going down a country lane with a long legged blonde with short skirt sitting next to you and your Terry Thomas style mustache blowing in the wind.

    Morgan three wheeler my favourite car that actually is not a car and it’s not even a motorbike ,that said I beg any of you just test drive it, The feeling is nothing You’ve ever experience, and drive it through the city or town and oh my God does everyone look at you and take photos and want know what it is, And nearly everyone Waves at you. I don’t own one yet but a number of friends of mine‘s owns them.
    110 years plus uk Malvern company , been to the factory tour, people from all over the world like the Chinese and American comes to look at this quirky company, as you can see I love morgan cars especially the Morgans3wheeler but it’s not for everyone.

    If I had money to shell out for any car just because I could, I would absolutely get a Morgan 3-wheeler. I would also get the leather flying jacket, scarf, goggles, leather helmet and even get the brown gauntlets for full effect. I might even just have to earn my pilot's license so I could wear the wings badge!

    I have got a cam am spyder rt and I total agree with the problems with the wheel set up the first few times you ride one you try and miss the road imperfections but on the third time you ride it’s bugger that and just go with the flow. My can am also comes with stability control and traction control I am not sure what the Morgan’s got but without them it will be a white knuckle ride and part of the charm.

    Meeting a DeLorean in that car, in that attire.. That is just abolut as perfect as it gets. What a wonderful moment :D ..and to the Three Wheeler: Living in Denmark, and without the moneyz to own several vehicles, i can't see myself buying such a thing, but it's the only current Morgan that makes me happy. It sounds lovely, and looks amazing. If i were to buy a Morgan it would be either the Three Wheeler, or a proper Rover V8 Morgan from yesteryear. I prefer the V8 verson :)
